Set in 1965, Moonrise Kingdom is a stylized coming of age film that
delivers on its promise to bring the viewer of any age back to the
intensity of just-entering-adolescence love. That alone makes this an
extraordinary film. In addition, the music and imagery are beautifully
orchestrated to delight the senses. The casting, characters, and acting
are superb. It is rare to have a film that puts together this much
talent and then taps it to the fullest.
